Introduction

The fourth installment of the Thor series is finally coming out this year. The first part, Thor, released in 2011 was a blockbuster hit and so was the second part Thor: The Dark World which was released in 2013. Then Ragnarok came along and completely changed the landscape of Marvel with its new fresh vibe and storyline.

Cast

Chris Hemsworth as Thor

Tom Hiddleston as Loki

Cate Blanchett as Hela, the Asgardian goddess of death and ruler of the underworld who seeks to conquer Asgard. She was imprisoned long ago by Odin, but has escaped and seeks revenge on him for imprisoning her and now wants to take over Asgard. She is one of the best villains in any Marvel movie.

Idris Elba is Heimdall, a warrior who guards a Bifrost Bridge connecting Asgard with other realms from his observatory tower at its entrance.

Jeff Goldblum plays The Grandmaster who is an Elder God disguised as a wealthy collector interested in games, particularly those involving death. He is accompanied by Topaz (Rachel House), an emissary of Sakaar’s ruler Scrapper 142 (Florence Pugh), who serves as The Grandmaster’s bodyguard; Korg (Taika Waititi), an optimistic rock monster from Kronan; Miek (Tessa Thompson), Korg’s loyal companion; A-Force member Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson); citizens of Sakaar like Hogun (Tadanobu Asano) and Fandral the Dashing Warrior (Zachary Levi).

Karl Urban plays Skurge The Executioner whose weapon can absorb energy weapons such as laser fire or lightning thrown at him by opponents so he can redirect them back at them through his shield

Filming

  • Filming took place in Australia, New York City, and Atlanta, Georgia, and also took place in San Francisco, California.

Storyline

Thor: Love and Thunder will be the fourth sequel to Thor. The movie is going to be based on comics and will be released in 2022. It is currently in production with Chris Hemsworth, Tessa Thompson, and other actors from MCU reprising their roles as Thor, Valkyrie, and Bruce Banner/Hulk respectively. Natalie Portman has been confirmed for this movie but she will not be playing Jane Foster again but rather a female version of Thor named Lady Thor who wields Mjolnir and possesses all powers of Asgardian royalty including flight and weather manipulation

Release date

If you’re curious about the timing of Thor: Love and Thunder, I have good news. The movie is scheduled to be released on July 8, 2022. So mark your calendars!

Do not miss the movie.

You will not want to miss the movie. This is a fact, as it is also a Marvel superhero film, and if you are reading this article right now then probably you’re more into superheroes than other people. You know what Thor is. He’s the god of thunder in Norse mythology! He has an epic hammer that can summon lightning to do his bidding! In the comics, he fights alongside The Avengers (or sometimes against them) along with Iron Man and Captain America! If you’ve seen any of those movies then you know what I’m talking about when I say “Avengers”. But wait there’s more: Thors are everywhere these days in pop culture; they have their action figures; they even have their TV shows like Agents of S.H.I.E.L D or animated series like Ultimate Spiderman where young Peter Parker discovers that he has superpowers after being bitten by a radioactive spider…

If all this sounds appealing but maybe doesn’t quite sound exciting enough yet — then let me add one more thing: Thor: Love And Thunder not only brings back Chris Hemsworth as our favorite Asgardian hero but also introduces Natalie Portman (who plays Jane Foster), Tessa Thompson (Valkyrie), and Natalie Portman’s daughter Paris Jackson as her first appearance on screen since she was just 9 years old!

Conclusion

No matter what the final story turns out to be, fans can expect a lot of action and humor. It’s not just Thor who will be returning in this movie, either — we can expect Loki (Tom Hiddleston), Heimdall (Idris Elba), Odin (Anthony Hopkins), and Sif (Jaimie Alexander) along with other Asgardians as well. And if rumors are true about a new character named Magni being featured in Love and Thunder?

It’s going to be a wild ride!
